Château de Bel Franc de Bel NV

Olivier Cazenave is the most radical winegrower in Bordeaux. Multi-vintage bottlings, biodynamic farming, avant-garde packaging...in so many ways Olivier is re-imagining what is possible in this historic French wine region.

This is something really different: a Vin de France pseudo-solera system of five vintages (2011-15) of Cabernet Franc, all packaged up in one of the cutest (and antithesis of Bordeaux) bottles you'll ever see. Made and aged in French oak barrels, it's a remarkably smooth, aromatic wine, with precise floral aroma, then smoky and gently spicy, with liquorice and blackberries. Lovely, lovely wine, and utterly unique - you won't find another Bordeaux red anything like it.
